Moving On
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the words.
Prologue: Rogue is the narrator. Recently she and Bobby Drake got married after she could control her powers. They moved out of the institute into a cheap apartment. They both went off to college. A lot had happened before though, after a small battle the president established a treaty between humans and mutants of the U.S. Bobby decided to Join the military which was now fighting for mutant justice worldwide. Bobby was accepted into the service. Some people however did not tolerate mutants. On the day of acceptance Bobby was shot and killed. Now Rogue deals with his death and the fight to move on when a stranger comes to her door.
I'm walking down the streets that we were yesterday.
Now I'm alone every step of the way.
We were happy and free.
Then you were taken from me.
I sit down and cry; I watch the days go by.
It's hard to believe that you're gone now, that one man broke our vow.
Your spirit is here, why haven't you moved on?
You make sure I'm ok with every new dawn.
I'll be fine, but it won't set in.
I can't forgive him, not after what he did.
I can't face him, accept his apologies.
Why can't you just see?
You stay here worried for my soul.
His murder has quickly taken its toll.
I cry all the time,
Remembering when you were mine.
I have to face him, he's at our door.
He says he's sorry, but doesn't realize what really for.
I begin to yell, and our story I will surely tell.
We were young and free, knew what we wanted to be.
He had a life, it was military for him.
He finished college and was finally commissioned in.
He went to the store so we could celebrate.
You showed up, pulled a gun. From that shot my heart ached.
We rushed to the emergency room, but he had already gone. The lonesome ride home was miserable, I walked in the dark, and not a light
came on.
You're here at my door, saying sorry ma'am
You're as sorry as you possibly can.
This is for my guy whose life you stole.
I'll no longer keep him in this hole.
You're forgiven please leave me.
His spirit will move on now, and I can live in peace.
I'm dirty and plain, but finally lifted from this pain.
I too am moving on.
If you liked it, then review! -Shitaka
